Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement contracting process initiated by Suffolk Coastal District Council and Waveney District Council focuses on acquiring "Internal Audit Extension" services within the services industry category, particularly Internal Audit services. Located in Woodbridge, England, the tender falls under the 'award' stage, with relevant key dates including the awarding date of 27 March 2026. This process aims to extend current audit services for a year at South Norfolk and Broadland District Council, with the contract period set from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement method is selective, using a call-off from a framework agreement, highlighting a focus on targeted service delivery.

This tender opportunity offers business growth for entities specialised in internal audits, primarily those with a track record of service delivery in local government frameworks. With a contract value of £100,000, businesses equipped to provide quality internal audit services should consider competing for such frameworks. The nature of the call-off from a framework makes it crucial for businesses that are already established as service providers within such arrangements or related qualifications. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this an advantageous opportunity due to its particular provision for service extensions in the public sector. The designation of Bdo LLP as the awarded supplier underscores the requirement for established expertise and scale in delivering audit services.
